Hello,

I'd like to summarize my activity of these last days on the rework 
testing branch.

First, many thanks to Tim, Eli and those who helped them during PyCon 
for making those improvements to our testing infrastructure.

My goal was to finalize the Windows support and to be able to run the 
functional tests with both PostgreSQL and MySQL alternate database 
backends on that platform.
Also, particular attention was given to the database backup code 
(http://trac.edgewall.org/ticket/2304), contributed by Shane Caraveo and 
reworked by Rémy Blank.

As things turned out pretty well, I did some intermediate backports to 
trunk (r8131, r8151) and to 0.11-stable (r8132, r8152) so that we could 
benefit from those improvements as soon as possible on the maintenance 
branches.

Among other things, we now have the possibility to run the functional 
tests without having the svn bindings installed. That was especially 
important for me when testing 0.11-stable for Python 2.3 on Windows, 
where the svn bindings are not readily available.

I also verified that the functional tests still work on Linux with 
PostgreSQL, but I couldn't test with MySQL - I hope this still works as 
well.

On the branch itself, I see some remaining work to do:
 - finalize http://trac.edgewall.org/ticket/8169 (Ability to run 
functional tests on non-sqlite).
   This means checking that http://trac.edgewall.org/changeset/8155 
works fine also on Linux.
 - use the alternate database backends for the unit-tests as well.
   Has someone already started to work on that?

I'd also be interested to know if there were further changes planned on 
that branch.
